A Lakers fan was spotted, and he didn’t hold back, giving his own reasons.
I see what's going on here Cube. You are a huge Lakers fan. Jaylen plays in the big 3 game, hurts himself, derailing the Celtics as the favorite for the championship next year. Lakers, somehow, hold it together and win another title.
